Why are the poor are physically weak ?
The poor are physically weak as Poverty and Health are co-related. Hence when a person or a family suffers from acute poverty then that person or family won't have the necessary resources to keep a check on their health.
Poverty is fueled by the economic and political structure of a society. Poor people living in such a society neither have money nor any health care services readily available.
Those who are under the more marginalized sections of society are barred from the community infrastructure. Besides this, there are many poor families which are overcrowded and hence difficult to manage. Women are responsible for the caretaking of most households which is why they face weakness early on. All these situations are the driving factors behind the deteriorating health condition of the poor.
